I have been milk testing for 3 weeks with some Easy Dip 5-in-1 pool testing strips that I bought off ebay. These strips have been registering no calcium in the milk and a pH consistently > 7.0.
I have also been using some test strips for testing the pH of human saliva or urine, these have also been reading >7.0.
Today I tried using some aquachek strips and got a reading of 1000ppm calcium and a pH of 6.2 I tested the same milk sample using the original strips and human strips and got exactly the same reading as before, no calcium, pH around 7.
So which ones do I believe? According to aquachek she's likely to foal very, very soon
She's a week overdue, she's got huge udders and she was leaking small drops of watery milk for a while last night.
